Is it possible that all the pacesetters of the Tang Dynasty are so inarticulate?
Zhang Yang walked up to him and saw that a lot of the snow on his body had melted and even wet his clothes.
"If you want to come to me in the future, you can write a letter to Lishan and ask the people in Lishan to deliver the letter to me."
"Here." Li Ke said with a straight face.
"Call me brother-in-law." Zhang Yang emphasized.
"I understand, brother-in-law."
The cold wind blew through and brought some snowflakes into the warehouse. Zhang Yang leaned against the door, "What do you want to ask me this time?"
Li Ke took out the military training method he had written before, "This!"
He glanced at the military training method that he had written to him before. The pale yellow paper was full of wrinkles. It looked like he often took it out to read, and it also looked like it had been crumpled into a ball and then flattened out.
"Any questions?"
"I don't want to learn this, I want to learn skills from my brother-in-law."
The feeling of wind and snow blowing on my face is very unpleasant. A gust of wind blows the snow directly into my face.
Zhang Yang wiped away the snow falling on his face, "Can you learn mathematics?"
Li Ke hesitated for a long time, "Yes."
"Okay, then let me test you. Now there is a person holding rice out of three passes. If the outer pass is three, one will be taken. If the middle pass is five, one will be taken. If the inner pass is seven, one will be taken. The remaining rice is five dou. How many measures of rice is that person holding?"
"This..." Li Ke froze on the spot, unable to answer.
"Ten buckets, nine liters, and eight points are three." Xiao Wu from the library was the first to answer.
Zhang Yang added: "You are a good boy. You have been able to endure hardships in the army for so many years. You grew up in the army. Your foundation is all in the army. Learning mathematics from scratch is not a good choice."
"But I've tried everything my brother-in-law wrote, but I can't do it well."
"Why can't I practice well?"
"Just standing is fine, but they always walk awkwardly. They also always say that practicing this is of no use because it won't be used to kill enemies in battle. They are always making fun of me behind my back."
Zhang Yang scratched his head in distress, "Is this really true?"
Li Ke clenched his hands and nodded.
"His Royal Highness, King of Shu, what I said before may be one-sided. Whether walking or standing, practicing is nothing more than command and prohibition. It is also a kind of unity, cooperation and cohesion."
Seeing that he was listening carefully, Zhang Yang continued: "Unlike ordinary soldiers and horses of the Guard, the soldiers and horses of the Guard seem to be training neatly, but the discipline is not good."
"A good sense of discipline can strengthen their execution ability, so that a team can execute strategies without distraction or making mistakes."
Li Ke was puzzled and said: "But the general and the others don't train like this."
"My method is suitable for small groups of soldiers and horses, but not for large groups of soldiers and horses."
Li Ke still nodded, "Brother-in-law, please continue."
"We need to establish a trusting relationship among the team members. In addition to daily practice, we must also provide them with hygiene and rest routines. Well! We must also ensure that they take a shower once a day."
"Wait a minute." Li Ke hurried away again. After a while, he brought a pen and paper. He first wrote down part of it, and then said, "Brother-in-law, you can continue talking."
"Arrange an independent camp for them. In addition to exercising every day, we also teach them how to read and write. The camp must be clean..."
Zhang Yang was talking to himself, and I saw that he was still writing with a pen. The boy's handwriting was not pretty, but he could still understand it.
"There are many ways to fight with a small group of soldiers and horses. They can disrupt the enemy's rear or penetrate deep into the enemy camp. Unlike the confrontation between two armies, a small group of soldiers and horses can go straight into the enemy camp and take the enemy general's head first."
"Or you can create chaos in the enemy camp to find opportunities for our army to attack. Squad operations are flexible and efficient, and there are many changeable tactics. In terms of tactics, His Royal Highness the King of Shu can imagine as much as he wants."
"Originally, I planned to hand over this military training method to Su Dingfang."
Seeing that he was still writing, Zhang Yang said again: "You don't need to remember this sentence."
Li Ke nodded again and crossed out this sentence.
In fact, if you want to write it, you have already written it down, so forget it and don’t need to cross it out.
Seeing that he was a little slow and clumsy, Zhang Yang stopped talking and said, "That's all."
Li Ke added: "My mother and concubine always say that I am stupid, so I will work harder than others."
"Who hasn't been a stupid kid before?" Zhang Yang smiled bitterly.
"Now that I understand what my brother-in-law means, I will go back to the camp and prepare for training."
The boy hurriedly left again, and Li Yue walked aside and asked, "What do you think, Your Highness, King of Shu?"
Zhang Yang shook his head, "What a good kid."
Xiao Wu and Xu Hui struggled to drag out a bag full of books.
The two of them gritted their teeth and suppressed their blushes before dragging them to the door.
I saw a big hand reach out and easily pick up the bundle and put it on my shoulder.
Xiao Wu saw that his palms were red, and then he looked up at his master, his eyes dull, and he couldn't help but wonder what was going on with such huge strength?
Looking at myself and Xu Hui, we were already out of breath from exhaustion.
The couple held hands, and Li Yue smiled softly and said, "What should we eat today?"
Zhang Yang thought for a while, "How about salted duck eggs?"
"I don't want to eat anything salty. I've eaten too much dried meat recently and my mouth is salty, so my mother sent me some glutinous rice from the south."
"It's hard to digest if you eat too much of this stuff."
The couple talked while walking in the wind and snow, with Xiao Wu and Xu Hui following behind. The two girls looked at the package on the master's shoulders, and they still didn't understand how strong it was.
It's been snowing for three days in a row. It's the New Year's Eve that should be celebrated.
The officials of the Diplomatic Academy have almost dispersed. After finishing their busy work this year, they have to take a break from the court. They have been exhausted from going up and down this year. Let everyone go back to take care of their families and continue their work next year.
Zhang Elephant was sitting in the room, reading the letters from Liaodong. Da'an had begun to rectify the reconstruction of county magistrates and county government offices in various counties in Liaodong. From the letter, it seemed that this matter was going quite smoothly.
He also talked about the old governor of Liaodong, who had been in office from the Sui Dynasty to the present. He was also very old, and asked the court if there were any other arrangements.
Zhang Xiangxiang raised his eyes and looked at Di Zhisun, "You should also go back to your hometown to visit, and come to Chang'an City next year to work."
Di Zhisun bowed and said: "Shilang Zhang, there are still many documents that need to be sorted out. I will go back after sorting these."
This man came from a famous family, and his father Di Xiaoxu was also a leader in the war. Now he is in charge of rectifying the military in Bianzhou.
"I heard that you have two brothers."
Di Zhisun replied: "I have two elder brothers. One is serving in Jiangyin and the other is serving in Shangluo. My elder brother's parents are all over the Central Plains. Even if I go back to my hometown after I get an official position... there is no one at home."
The door was opened, and a gust of cold wind blew in with some fine snow.
Zhang Dasu and Xu Jingzong entered the door and hurriedly closed the door.
Since the three ministers were present, they knew there was something important to discuss. Dizhisun walked to the door and closed it, and heard discussions starting in the room.
Di Zhisun looked from the balcony and saw that the sky was still gloomy. It had been snowing for so long and it was still covered with dark clouds. Just looking at it, it felt like the sky was a lot lower. It was very rare to see such a cold winter.
In the room, Xu Jingzong read Da'an's letter and said: "The Foreign Affairs Council wants to run Liaodong and cannot hand over the power of Liaodong to others."
